Batler as mdamippus. Distant as melanippus , var. hegesippus. It 
was retired by Cramer from a female specimen from the west coast of 
Sumatra. I. inter Moore, is found in the smaller hills bordering 
the aliavial plain, and is still to be got at Bekantschan. whereas 
I', r t is always found within a moderate distance of the sea.

tant as aspasia, var. croeea. I am quite unable to separate D. croeea, 
Batler. from D. aspasia, d ie Journ. Bomb. Hat. Hist. Soc.. vol. x, p. 13, 
(!Sv5 . I have a large series of these two supposed distinct species 
f: : m the typical localities for each, and they are absolutely indis¬ 
tinguishable. D. aspasia may be found in Sumatra all the year 
round, but always only singly. In the spots where a bine Heliotrope- 
like d: we: is in abundance, the males of this species will ocenr singly 
together with numerous species of Danais and Euplcea, but the 
females are only found in the forests, and never frequent these well- 
beloved dowers of their husbands, brothers and cousins. 
13. Daxais ( [Parantica ) aglaioides, Felder. 
Hagen as agieoides sic . Grose Smith as agleovies "sic" 1 . Stau- 
dinger as agleoiles sic . Distant as agleoiles sic . The males are verv 
common in the t-lains. the females very rare as in the case of D. vigaris, 
Butler. On the wing these two species are hardly distinguishable.

Grose Smith. Dr. Martin has never met with this species. Mr. 
Moore restricts it to Java, hut it may quite possibly occur at the south- 
e ast end of Sumatra, which is only separated from Java by the verv 
narrow Snnda Strait. It is known to me bv Boisduval s figure onlv.
